Golden State Warriors

[78]

They need to finish out 7-2 to end up with a 73-9 season record and top the league season wins mark of 72 set by the 1995-96 Bulls. Two of the games are against San Antonio. Comparisons have been drawn with Jordan's Bulls all season, leading to the obvious question: Do the Curry-led Warriors belong in the discussion? I haven't watched much of them, so I'm interested in any takes.

I watched almost every game the Bulls played in 1995-96 and although it was a great team built around three superstars, I've always felt the '92-'93 title team was even better, esp on defense.

I'm not a huge NBA fan and haven't watched much, but to have the success they have had is incredible. Curry is one of the best pure shooters I've ever seen. It'll be interesting to see how long he can produce at the level he has the past few seasons.

Did you happen to watch the Finals last year?

Small ball.

Different times with very different rules. So it is impossible for me to say.

I'll go on record as saying Bulls beat the Warriors 121-70 with Longley bagging 38.

This and the fact that defense is only a suggestion in today's NBA.

So you haven't watched GS enough to form an opinion but say the Bulls would beat them by 51? Way to play the "no way to prove me wrong" card right out of the gate

Did longley even have 38 career points?

At the rules they had then, the bulls would slaughter this warriors team. If they played according to the rules today, it would be a very close game.

Curry would **** his pants if he had MJ guarding him or if he had to play the Bad Boy Pistons more than one time a season.

He was the premier unathletic, slow, freckled, white center of his era.

Loved those Pistons teams. Laimbeer!

He had a weird looking shot too.

Stephen Curry, stop this.

You know the guy sucks when he makes you long for Stacey King.

I think it would be a tought match up for longley and wennington to chase around dramond green. You would have barnes and Rodman guarding eachother. Igudualla and pippen matched up. Clay Thompson trying to guard mj. And Ron Harper trying to guard curry. I think the warriors could take em based off match ups. But you just can't ever count out mj .

Stephen Curry, stop this.

I'm sure not many 6'3 PGs could. I don't think Mike would want much of LBJ coming full speed at him, no?

Luc Longley?!?
